EIRENE continued the fine form of the Ivory team when winning a Listed fillies’ race at Newbury today and landing a gamble into the bargain from 33/1 into 10/1.
The 2yo Declaration Of War filly cost 85,000 guineas as a foal but today’s impressive black type win over 5f means she’s enhanced her paddocks value in no uncertain terms.
Robert Winston held the filly up on the far side, switched her to the centre and taking it up a furlong from home, Eirene ran on strongly to win by a length and three-quarters.
Dean’s fourth winner in the last fortnight is the Radlett trainer’s 24th of the season and keeps him on target for his best ever season.
